Search this topic, it has been discussed many many times. First and foremost you need a lot of tools, time and money. although these swaps were done in SV21's.... dont know how dramatically different the 2 models are...
Here are a few guys that have done it to SV21's

It will probably be a big headache with the carb'ed 1.8L motor as a starting point, but it is probably still do-able. Get ready to spend a lot of money and a lot of time (including a bunch of wiring).
